Made a fool of myself at the gas station last night.

[370Z/28]

Stopped to put a couple of gallons in the rental so I would have enough to get it back to the dealership. Unlocked the doors, got out and pushed on the gas filler door....nothing! I tried again and again. Went back in the car and made sure the doors were unlocked, got back out and pushed and pushed on the filler door again. It wasn't budging. Called the dealership (thank goodness someone was still there). Told the guy what I was doing. He just giggled. He said, you usually drive a coupe don't you? I said yes. He said on the sedan you push the other side of the door. I felt like an idiot!!

Priceless.

When I bought my Coupe (after owning a Q45 for several years), the first time I went to buy gas, I searched relentlessly for the fuel door release.

Reading the manual is SO out of the question.

Oh yeah...totally! Especially when Infiniti of Memphis's phone number is so easy to remember and everybody has always been so nice to me.

I did the EXACT same thing and felt like a tool. Probably spent about 5 mins looking everywhere for a release button before I did the "unmanly" thing and looked in the manual directions

After every other car I owned had the lever I searched forever before finally reading the manual. Luckily I did it at home and not while at a gas station though.

I must be the real tool. I tend to read all my manuals, but later can't remember most of what I have read. Reminds me of graduate school.

nice going becki!typical of a woman... what many times happens to me, is I usually lock my doors as I drive, so when I stop at a gas station, I dont push the lock button, instead I manually flip it back and try to push my fuel door open, only to walk back around and have to push the button anyway.

I forget where gas doors are until after I have prepaid and managed to actually remember the pump number the majority of the time. However I would personally would take pushing one side of the gas door over something like the Eclipse has.

The door on the sedan is a square and the coupe is round and made of plastic. The two different types of door require different ways of opening.

not everone makes the money you do sir.

[infinitgkid]

I don't push anything to get my gas door open...

...My G reads my mind and does as it's told

[jakex1]

hahahah better than me, the day i got the car i went to the gas station with my parents and i stayed there for 30 minutes looking all over the cockpit for a lever/button to open the gas cap.

I have gotten very good at it. Being a loaner (didn't know I was going to have it 2 weeks), I never wanted to put much in it because I didn't want to turn it in with MY gas in it. I have been stopping and putting in 10 dollars worth. I'm getting pretty sick of it.

[BrandAidDesignG35]

Ten dollars only goes so far in these cars lol

[370Z/28]

Yeah...and when that red light comes on and starts counting down your mileage, you best find your azz a gas station!
